Abstract:Aiming at the adaptability of missile-borne micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) gyroscope in shock environments, the anti-shock characteristic of MEMS gyroscope is analysed during the initial stage of missile launch. The shock signal characteristics are analysed using Fourier transform, and the shock response of the position where the missile-borne MEMS gyroscope installed is calculated by the transient dynamics method combined with finite element analysis, factors such as the characteristics of the shock signal, the mechanical transmission of the metal shell and the index of MEMS gyroscope are comprehensively considered. The experimental results show that the frequency is close between the high-frequency signals and the second order modal of the inertial measurement unit (IMU) metal shell, the mechanical shock borne MEMS gyroscope is amplified by about 4 times, reaching 879g, which leads to a risk of MEMS gyroscope failure in the initial launch stage. Therefore, some protective measures should be taken in engineering application.
